2024 COASTER Holiday Express

Important Reminders

Happy Holidays!

Thank you for purchasing tickets to join us for the SOLD-OUT COASTER Holiday Express! Santa and his friends are excited to make this the best Holiday Express yet!

We’d like to remind our guests of the following important information: 

  • The Holiday Express leaves from Oceanside Transit Center, 235 S. Tremont St, Oceanside 92054. Parking is free. Please allow ample time to park and walk to Platform 1.
  • All guests are asked to arrive 30 minutes prior to train departure to allow time to find their line and present tickets to be scanned. All passengers over two years of age must have a ticket to ride. Children two and younger must sit on a lap, no exceptions.
  • Holiday Express is open seating. Choose your seat when you board. Large groups are encouraged to arrive and line up early. This event is sold out, so we cannot guarantee that large groups will be able to sit together.
  • Boarding will begin 20 minutes prior to departure and the train will leave on time. We cannot hold the train for late guests – Santa is on a tight schedule!
  • Due to limited space, strollers, car seats and bikes are not permitted on board for this event. Please leave them at home or in your car.

  • Please eat and drink holiday treats before or after the train ride. Food and drinks are not allowed on board the Holiday Express.

Please remember to bring non-perishable food donations for our food drive!

NCTD is partnering with the San Diego County Food Bank to collect non-perishable food items during Holiday Express. The food will help North County residents, including many families with children, facing nutrition insecurity.

If every guest brings at least one food item to donate, we’ll reach our goal!

Please help us help others during this holiday season and bring a few of the following items:

  • canned meats 
  • canned vegetables 
  • canned fruits 
  • peanut butter 
  • pasta, rice 
  • cereal, oatmeal 

***New! Families can also donate virtually!
For every $1 donated, the food bank can provide 2 meals to families and individuals in need!

Thank you again and we look forward to seeing you at Holiday Express!
